Franklin Mint – 1/24 Scale – 32′ Ford V8 Deuce Coupe in Green Diecast Scale Model Replica

Deuce coupe is a slang term used to refer to the 1932 Ford coupe. Either a 3-window or 5-window coupe is still a ‘deuce’. In the 1940s, the ’32 Ford became an ideal hot rod, being plentiful and cheap enough for young men to buy, and available with a stylish V-8 engine. Rodders would strip weight off this readily available car and “hop up” or customize the engine. They came in two body styles, the more common 5-window and rarer suicide door 3-window. After World War II, the iconic stature of the 1932-vintage Ford in hot rodding inspired The Beach Boys to not only write a song entitled “Little Deuce Coupe” in 1963, but also had one of their albums named for the car, from the aforementioned song.
